Please note that disabling org-persist is not officially supported and
can be broken any moment. Like it appeared to happen for you after
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/commit/?id=5a5ec1b320512f5e97f72668abc13447567fdd35

In future, I may implement some options to, say, set org-persist save
the data alongside with .org file. For now, it is a centralized place.
